Levenhuk LabZZ TK60 telescope with case
The Levenhuk LabZZ TK60 telescope is a wonderful gift for a schoolchild who is interested in astronomy. It is well suited for studying the Moon and ground objects, is equipped with all the accessories necessary for observations, and does not require special skills to operate. The telescope and accessories are placed in a plastic case, in which they are convenient to store and transport. The optical design of the telescope is a classic achromat refractor. Since all lenses are made of glass and equipped with an anti-reflective coating, the optics convey good-quality images and please the eye with clear rendering of details. The lens aperture is 60 mm, so the main object for observation is the Moon. More distant objects will also be visible, but without details on them. The optical tube is mounted on a forked azimuth mount. This is a basic type of mount for entry-level telescopes, but complemented by a convenient microscrew on the vertical axis. This ensures smooth and comfortable rotation of the pipe when aiming. The mount is mounted on an aluminum tripod, in the center of which you can install a shelf for accessories. The height of the tripod can be adjusted. The package includes many optical accessories, so there is no need to purchase anything additional.
